Unexpected element: OPEN_TAG

I receive this output for one of my projects:

I haven't been able to find any workable solution. Can anyone please point me in the right direction?

    How would some one imagine the case to reproduce? Would you mind providing more details?

    By the way, check your project file name. Does it have "null" in its name?

    Have you edited the project file manually in any text editor (Even if the project file name is having "null" in its name) ?
    Alternatively, you can try opening your project file in a browser and see.
    It complains line number 2 of your project file for some tag.

    Hi Rao,

     

    Apologies for the late response. It's due to a combination of a hectic schedule and a fairly low priority for this problem. There's some work going on on this project at the moment and, once committed, I'll be able to check whether the problem still occurs. Until then it's dormant.

    You have some extra details in your settings xml file. Open the settings file in a text editor (notepadd++) and simply try to save it. You ll be prompted with an error stating the line where the error occurs. In your case it's line 2 so try to understand what's extra in line 2. Save each time you make a modification and try to see what errors you get (or not).
